Maoshan ghost hunter

Both Wutong and Mao Xiaofang nodded solemnly, but Lu Xiaoqing and Chen Xiaoyu vaguely showed contempt, not against Miaoxin, but against this ancient tomb.

Seeing their expressions, Ye Shaoyang understood the mentality of the two of them. He had seen quite a few people like this before: they were the sons of heaven since they were young and enjoyed the most special treatment. The best among his peers, he has never encountered anything really difficult to deal with, and he has just walked in the rivers and lakes, and his attitude is arrogant. Even when he heard the word "corpse refining vat", he didn't feel nervous from the bottom of his heart. They regarded this action as more of a game, a means to win Miao Xin over.

Ye Shaoyang sighed in his heart, this kind of person will suffer a loss sooner or later.

They think that they usually fight with others and carry out some less dangerous consecration actions together, even if they are cultivating Taoism, but they have never experienced a real life-and-death battle.

Practice is not the same thing as actual combat.

Ye Shaoyang understood this truth when he was very young.This is thanks to Qingyunzi and Daofeng. When he was very young, he took him to walk the rivers and lakes, catch ghosts and subdue demons, and grow up little by little in actual combat. In the dangerous situation, it is impossible for him to turn danger into safety again and again.There is luck, and more importantly, in contemporary language, it is four words: combat literacy.

When they were ready, everyone filed into the hole.

Ye Shaoyang and Mao Xiaofang followed at the back of the team.

This is a cave that appeared because of a collapse. It is flat and can only be climbed sideways.After entering the cave, I immediately felt the cold wind blowing on my face, chilling my bones.Indus gave everyone a Zhengqi pill, which can be kept in the mouth to prevent Yin Qi from invading.Although several people are at least the celestial master tablets, but long-term absorption of Yin Qi will also cause discomfort.

Lu Xiaoqing walked in the front with a three-color lotus lantern.The cave is a downhill, and there is water everywhere on the surrounding fault rock walls, and it is a natural cave, which is very difficult to walk.The few people made great efforts and walked tens of meters deep. At the end of the cave, a layer of stone wall appeared in front of it. The hole, the dark wind blows from here.

"This is the wall of the tomb passage." Miao Xin groped for the stone wall under the illumination of the three-color lotus lamp, and said for a while, "That's right, it's the tomb of the Yuan Dynasty."

Someone immediately asked her how she judged.

"Look at this tomb brick. It is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom. This is the uniform style of the tomb bricks of the Yuan Dynasty. Only the tomb bricks of the Yuan Dynasty have this shape. There is no mistake. From this, it can be seen that the saying in my family is correct. It must be The tomb of Zhao Yu's descendants."

Ye Shaoyang said: "How do you say that?"

"It's very simple. If this tomb is from before the Yuan Dynasty, then it has nothing to do with Zhao Yu. If it's from the Ming Dynasty or the Qing Dynasty, then it's impossible...Only during the Yuan Dynasty, the Zhao family was considered orthodox. Only those survivors of the Southern Song Dynasty would think of restoring the country. In Daming, the Mongols have been driven away by the Han people, so what’s the use of the royal blood of the Song Dynasty?"

Song Xiaoyu also lit an oil lamp, pointed at the gap and said, "Where did this hole come from?"

Miao Xin looked around the cave and said, "I suspect that the cave outside was created by the change of the mountain. Afterwards, there may be something like rats or pangolins. Feeling the coolness inside, they made holes here and pierced the tomb passage..."

When Mao Xiaofang heard this, he couldn't help interjecting, "Can a pangolin make such a big hole?"

Miao Xin rolled his eyes at him and said: "Listen to me, under the ancient tomb, Yin and Yang are separated, as long as you don't touch Yang Qi, even if there is an evil thing, it is still in a deep sleep and will not change after being stung. But here With a hole, although the yin qi leaks out, the yang qi will also enter. The evil things like zombies inside will feel the yang qi shrinking. After waking up, they will keep looking for the source. I want to absorb more yang energy, so I made this hole bigger."

Although it was a guess, several people present felt that this analysis was reasonable.

Miaoxin took the three-color lotus lantern from Lu Xiaoqing's hand, squatted beside the small hole in the tomb passage, took out a brush from her bag, dipped it in some kind of medicinal powder, and smeared it a few times on the tomb brick at the bottom of the cave. The gray tomb bricks immediately turned a layer of black under the light of the fire, and then evaporated.

"This is corpse gas, that's right, not long ago, there must have been zombies crawling out of here."

Ye Shaoyang and Mao Xiaofang looked at each other, and they both took a deep breath. Although they are not afraid of zombies and the like, this is an ancient tomb after all, and it is the territory of zombies. Who knows how many zombies are there?What level of zombie?So now that they have found evidence that there are zombies below, the two are still a little nervous.

"Okay, it's good if there are zombies!" Chen Xiaoyu was gearing up, "We are going to kill a lot today, because we are afraid that there are too few zombies."

"Don't worry, no matter how many zombies there are, I will let you deal with them all." Ye Shaoyang said, thinking to himself, I hope you can still maintain this kind of unafraid of death.

Miao Xin didn't let everyone in first, but took out a piece of yellow mounting paper, folded it into the shape of a paper crane, and after finishing the eyes with a cinnabar pen, let go of her hand, blew on the paper crane, and read: If the yin and yang are manifested, if you see the yang and sink, if you see the yin and turn back, go.”

The paper crane fluttered its wings and flew in along the hole.

Ye Shaoyang understood her motives for doing this, so he stretched out his hand to test the hole, and said, "There is no wind coming from the hole, but if there is wind here, it means that there is oxygen below, so there should be no problem."

After finishing speaking, Ye Shaoyang turned his head to look, and found that several people were looking at him with strange eyes, not knowing what was going on, Miao Xin said: "What did you just say, Yang Qi? How can there be Yang Qi here? "

"Uh..." Ye Shaoyang finally understood what was going on, patted his forehead, and said, "I'm not talking about yang energy, but... oxygen. It is because people absorb the oxygen in the air that they can survive."

In this era, modern science has not been popularized, at least in China, there is no concept of "oxygen", so Ye Shaoyang had to popularize it for them.

Wu Tong said: "Where did you hear this? Why haven't I heard of it?"

"This..." Ye Shaoyang didn't know how to explain.

"He made it up himself, pretending to be shocking." Chen Xiaoyu sarcastically said to Ye Shaoyang without losing the opportunity.

Ye Shaoyang couldn't explain clearly, so he simply didn't explain.Chen Xiaoyu also thought that he was forced to question him and had nothing to say, so he was even more proud, and satirized Ye Shaoyang a few words.

After waiting for a stick of incense, the origami crane driven by Miao Xin's method flew out of the cave again, but after flapping its wings a few times, it shrank immediately, turned black, and turned into a pile of dry paper... …

Miao Xin was shocked, and said: "There is a yin nest below, and the yin energy is extremely heavy, it is not a good omen."

Chen Xiaoyu said nonchalantly: "What are you afraid of? Soldiers come to block you. Even if there is a corpse king inside, we have nothing to be afraid of."

Miao Xin stared at the wreckage of the paper crane that had turned into a ball of rotten paper and said: "Having said that, it's better to be careful, and you must remember to follow me, Shaoyangzi, come and hold the lamp."

Ye Shaoyang knew that she subconsciously felt that she was the most useless, so she let herself do this job, smiled, and took the three-color lotus lantern from Lu Xiaoqing.Mao Xiaofang looked at the lamp, and joked with Ye Shaoyang: "Shaoyangzi, if there is the 'flashlight' you mentioned at this time, it must be much more useful than this lamp."

Ye Shaoyang said: "Of course."

"What electricity? Magical artifact?" Miao Xin asked.

"Ahem, no, no, let's continue." Ye Shaoyang coughed twice, and illuminated her with a three-color lotus lamp.

Miao Xin took out three sticks of incense, and after lighting them, asked Ye Shaoyang to hold them, and told him to pay attention at all times, if the incense went out, he must tell her, and then everyone would leave immediately.

Ye Shaoyang immediately understood the reason for doing this. It had nothing to do with supernatural powers. It was actually the simplest scientific principle: the so-called people light candles and ghosts blow lamps. I thought it was a ghost, so I had to retreat immediately.

In fact, the candle was extinguished because of the lack of oxygen in the ancient tomb... But it was really in the depths of the tomb, and it was convenient to use candles to detect oxygen when there was no need to move around. When walking in the tomb, it usually gets deeper and deeper. Maybe there will be no oxygen while walking, but it is not convenient to walk around with candles, so use incense. If the incense goes out, it is naturally due to lack of oxygen.Although people in the past did not know the principle of fire burning, they also summed up such principles in practice.

As for the three-color lotus lamp, because it does not use kerosene, even if there is no air, it must have Yin Qi, and it can still burn, so it does not have the function of detection.

Miaoxin took out a compass and fiddled with it a few times. The first one crawled in along the cave, and then Ye Shaoyang followed, and illuminated it with a three-color lotus lamp. It was a long tomb passage, neatly repaired, with There is no end in sight.

After everyone went in, everyone began to study which way to go.Miao Xin suggested to walk in the direction where the wind blows, the wind can only blow from low places to high places, and the bottom is naturally the depths of the tomb.

The tomb passage is very wide, two or three people can stand side by side, so Miao Xin asked Ye Shaoyang to hold the lamp, followed her, and walked down the tomb.

As a result, after a few steps, everyone was attracted by the things on both sides of the tomb passage:

On both sides of the tomb passage, at intervals, a rock wall is hollowed out, and there are statues standing in it, about the size of a real person, each of which is different, and the image is very strange: some have a human head and a snake body, some are Three heads and six arms, some are simply horned beasts...

All the images are not only fierce, but the most special thing is that the eyeballs of these sculptures are inlaid with gemstones, shining brightly under the light of the fire, like a pair of eyes hidden in the dark, staring at people all the time, I don’t know why Ye Shaoyang always felt that the eyes of these statues were very evil.

Statues have eyes too?

Ye Shaoyang felt a little uneasy.

"What kind of gods are these, are they from the Buddhist sect?" Lu Xiaoqing asked curiously, and turned to look at Wutong. Wutong is a lay disciple of Mount Emei, and naturally knows the Buddha statues well. She looked carefully at the statues in front of her for a while, shook her head and said: " The shape of the sculpture is like Buddhism, but these gods are not from Buddhism. It looks like Bon Religion... Bon Religion is a kind of shamanism, enshrining many evil gods, these look a bit similar."

When Ye Shaoyang heard the word "Bon Sect", he immediately thought of the ancient tomb he had explored in the sandy seas of the Western Regions. What was dug out was Bai Qi...

Ye Shaoyang withdrew his thoughts, stared at these god statues, and said puzzledly: "Why are the eyes of these god statues replaced with glowing beads?"
